When the full moon is high
Fog creeping in
Hear the sounds of the fight

No one can win
Echoing outlawed pipes
Hauntingly played

As the ghosts of brave knights
Still fight this day


Spectres still waging war
In their deaths wake
Battling evermore

Till the daybreak
Known throughout the Borders
The Bloody Ridge

Ghostly place of honor
Bonchester Bridge


Heaven still weeps
For those noble souls
Each full moon brings

An army of warrior ghosts

Haunting pipes sing

Through the Border hills
Heroes of dream
Reliving the battle


Heaven still weeps
For those noble souls

Each full moon brings
An army of warrior ghosts


Haunting pipes sing
Through the Border hills
Heroes of dream

Reliving the battle
